Ungalo (ウンガロ, Ungaro) is a tertiary antagonist featured in the sixth part of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure series, Stone Ocean, specifically the "Bohemian Rhapsody" story arc.
Ungalo is one of DIO's illegitimate children with an unnamed woman. When he fatefully meets with Enrico Pucci, he awakens his Stand, Bohemian Rhapsody, and causes mayhem by bringing out fictional characters into reality in order to kill Jolyne and the others.
Appearance
Ungalo is a man with average build and above average height, possessing a rather flat face, small eyes, big visible teeth, pointy ears, and a "U"-shaped mark under the left eye. He is initially seen wearing a cutoff shirt, patterned with various stitch markings, and suspenders. Later, he wears a shirt with multiple randomly placed dots connected with each other by lines, along with wrist cuffs on each arm and a set of headphones. In both appearances, he wears a knit cap, with cornrows that can be seen underneath his cap.[2]
Along with his brothers, Ungalo inherits the Star Birthmark from his father.
Color Schemes
Personality
Inheriting his father's worst traits, Ungalo is a sadistic, violent, and incredibly vulgar individual with a short temper. He holds a grudge against the world for his circumstances, wishing to plunge it into despair and chaos.[3]
Ungalo's violent nature shows in his first appearance when holding Father Pucci hostage to escape law enforcement. He points scissors at the priest's throat, threatening to stab it if the police officers take their guns out.[2]
After Pucci awakens his Stand Bohemian Rhapsody, Ungalo becomes filled with a drive and happiness manifesting from his new-found ability. Capable of taking revenge on the world, he throws away his need for drug abuse and finds purpose in defending the priest. However, when Bohemian Rhapsody is defeated, Ungalo slips back to his hopeless nature and loses his will to live.[3]
Abilities
Stand
Bohemian Rhapsody allows Ungalo to bring out fictional characters into the real world and also force people to relive the story of the characters they identify themselves with the most.
History
Background
Prior to going to Florida (drawn by Enrico Pucci's "gravitational force"), Ungalo was a drug addict who lived a life of despair, not yet aware of his Stand ability Bohemian Rhapsody.
Stone Ocean (2011-2012)
Ungalo is first introduced in Orlando after using an unknown drug and going into a state of shock. Ungalo is subsequently brought to the hospital and wakes up, only to hold Enrico Pucci hostage with a pair of scissors. Pucci, however, calmly explains that there is a certain "gravitational force" that attracts certain people together. In response to this, Ungalo impales Pucci through the throat, but Pucci somehow stays alive, going on to explain that Ungalo missed a vital nerve by a millimeter. Pucci then suggests that Ungalo use his energy for wiser things than drugs. At this moment the police officers shoot at him and he is miraculously dragged away by the stick figure from a nearby "Do Not Walk" sign.
Four days before the new moon, Ungalo then meets with his other half-brothers Donatello Versus and Rikiel and Pucci. Pucci seemingly explains his goal in life to Ungalo and Ungalo departs to attack Jolyne and the others.
Bohemian Rhapsody Unleashed
Ungalo activated Bohemian Rhapsody to bring fictional characters to life, where they run amok in the world. He travels in a plane, drinking wine and enjoying hearing of the chaos his newfound power caused, claiming it as revenge against the whole world for the miserable life he had. However, he is distracted by a cheerful girl reading from a Peter Pan book (Aladdin book in the anime), and realizes that his Stand was already defeated when he sees the titular character on the cover. Ungalo subsequently loses his will to live upon realizing that he will be reverting back to his hopeless life.
